Hey STT fans- I am putting together a group of places of interest in Google Earth on STT and need help verifying a few locations. Can I get some help please?

Will post questions and pictures separately...coming below soon...

Sherban - here's a link to my map-in-progress for STT, if any of this helps you - Fungi's is on there - the general location - for some reason it does not show up that well. If you don't want to walk down (and then back up on a full stomach) from Point Pleasant, you can get to it from Pineapple Beach - there's a bridge that goes over to it from the shuttered Grand Beach property.

Cool Margy...I can use a couple of these, thanks.

I need to learn how to use Google Maps, I think it is easier to use than Google Earth for some folks...

It is, but you can't share files as easily. You can make your file in GM and then open it in GE to get the file to share, though - I think that's a kmz file or some acronym like that.

Sherban, that looks like Fungi's to me.

Also, find Lattitude 18, that's a great place. Really hard to find. Just when you think you are lost, you find it. There's been many times when we have gone to far up the road and had to back track.

Great food, on the water, good music or bands. It's a must.

What are the dates you are on STT again? Maybe we can get together.

You'll find it. You may pass it and have to back track. You actually can see Lattitude 18 when you take the ferry to STJ.

I guess you've heard that part of the road really sucks, so just take it slow. And...the sign is about 4x6..lol It looks like you're going into a persons driveway but then it opens up and you park on the grass.

Good luck!
